Welcome to the "Vision and Mobile Robotics Laboratory" web site. Our group studies fundamental problems of Computer Vision and ground mobile robotics. We belong to the Vision and Autonomous Systems Center within the Robotics Institute, at Carnegie Mellon University.

Current Projects

Detecting and Using Object Boundaries - In this project, we explore ways to reliably detect occluding boundaries by incorporating motion cues in addition to appearance cues. We also explore different ways in which boundaries can be used in segmentation and category recognition.

KIST Project - Coming soon.

]
Geometrically Coherent Image Interpretation -The objective of this research project effort is, given a single image, to automatically produce a coherent interpretation of the depicted scene.
[Summary]
Volumetric Features for Recognition in Video - This project explores the use of volumetric features for event detection in videos. Our method can detect action events in crowded videos without the need for figure-ground separation.

Advanced Sensor Based Defect Management at Construction Sites - This research project builds on, combines and extends the advances in generating 3D environments using laser scanners.
[Summary]
CTA Robotics - This project adresses the problems of scene interpretation and path planning for mobile robot navigation in natural environment.
